The NEW Official Arcade Stick Art Thread NO IMAGE QUOTING!

I agree, if you are not old enough to buy alcohol you aren’t old enough for me.

I’m working on Sakura art for my Hori SCV arcade stick.
I’m using some details of the blazblue layout… I kind of like it :smiley:
Not sure about the color of the button layout (that’s the reason of two colors), because I’m still going to buy the sanwa clear (blue or totally clear)

What do you guys think?
I would like to write ‘Sakura’ or ‘LRoque’ somewhere, any tips of what font should I use?

EDIT: I managed to find a cool font and put the punches and kicks instead of LK, MP, etc…

nope, but do you use it? i don’t, but yeah, i guess if you wanted it it’d be quite dumb to remove it lol

i dont understand why you’d write sakura since you’ve already got a whole bunch of pictures of her. fonts usually kill sticks in my book. also, get rid of those last two ugly buttons unless you really use them. otherwise i love the look. it’s really clean, the comic strip stuff looks really good and not out of place. outside the two dirty buttons i really lke it. and yes, fists>LP/MP written. i dont really like when people mark out which button is which - is it hard to play without it? usually makes the stick look worse

I can really like it outside of the PS button labels. I’d keep them but make them black since you already have the colored kicks and punches. That’s the only change I would suggest.

Yeah fonts need to be HUGE and CLEAR or else they just make a stick look dirty (mostly, there are a few exceptions)

Also nothing like having an underage upskirt on your stick, stay classy.

Just finished a request for a fellow SRK brother:

8 button is instant no-go for me

otherwise, looks good

not sure how much like the massive amount of text, but i guess it’s OK.

like the background

I think the face needs to be raised. I don’t like that it will be cut off just below his pouty bottom lip and above his manly chin. Hahaha.

That pic of him actually cuts off right there at his chin, so it can’t be raised unfortunately. Do you think its too much text?? At first I just had the Aquaman text and that’s it.

Lol the next stick I make for myself will be 6 button. I’m starting to like the 6 button better as well because I always turn off the two extra buttons.

I still think you should raise his head to where more of his chin is in the art. Did you mean for the border around the buttons and joystick opening to be slightly askew?

I can’t raise his heae anymore. If I raise it all that will be there is the background. There is no more chin to show. Ill have to see if I can find another version of that pic that shows his neck more.

The black line of the template is where the art will be cut off. There is quite a bit of chin under that line.

I see what youre saying. I extended the art down to that outer line because the arts hobbies template said it should be extendee there. I’ll raise it up though, I didn’t realize what you were suggesting at first lol.

Ya. He just wants to make sure there is a little bit of an overlap of that line just in case. Nothing is perfect.

I like how people quote images when the thread title itself says not to quote images.

Aquaman is so pouty

His mommy sent him to timeout.

That not panties, they are bloomers.

If skirts weren’t meant to provide upskirt shots, then they wouldn’t be skirts in the first place.
